Welcoming crowd at UBC

Their first stop was a public event at the University of British Columbia's Okanagan campus earlier in the afternoon, where a large crowd awaited their arrival.

After presiding over the dedication of a plaque marking the 10th anniversary of the school, the royal couple viewed a large piece of Indigenous art commissioned to honour the partnership between the university and the Okanagan Nation Alliance.
